I have a bad bad feeling about the outages happening today

I have a great feeling, it's cruisy as hell without emails! I'm able to get a morning of focus work done without interruption, and then I think it'll be a POETS Day.

I've not seen anyone use the term poet's day for many years. My dad used to be a tax accountant for British Rail and said that it was old corporate slang. (Piss off early, tomorrow's Saturday.)

So you are just waiting for the HN outage now?

		Nah, I was kickin' round HN with a beer in hand as I listened to a mate DJ on Twitch. Not a bad afternoon! (I did log in and do 30 mins work later on once systems were up but we all have our moments of weakness...)

Remember all those recent stories about "AI is really good at hacking now"?

Meanwhile SEGA's arcade machines have been offline for days: https://www.techpowerup.com/354714/sega-network-hack-keeps-j... and fanfiction writing site AO3 is down for two weeks so far. Then there's the freezer hacks, one of which impacted the French blood service.

It's been a long time since I read COMP.RISKS (and indeed it's no longer published) but this feels like an unusually high level of incidents.
